The New and Old Clock

Well, some Youtuber decided to upload some rare gems that GSN aired a few years ago. I do have to say, this is an older show that I enjoyed. Beat the Clock was not the most interesting show, but it could be fun. The 1969-1974 version of the show was my favorite, even though it was dirt cheap. It was just nothing but fun. Jack Narz was a good host at this show. And the pipe organ music was fun. The celebrity guests also did some shows, like Tom Kennedy, Patti Decutcsh, Dick Clark, Leslie Nielsen, Richard Dawson, and others. It was just fun to see them win stunts, and also a little bit of proof big money isn't necessarily the key to all game shows. I mean this show gave out very cheap amounts, I won't lie about that. But the stunts were fun, and it was fun to watch the celebrities.

Announcer Gene Wood took over when Jack Narz left in 1972. He did a very respectable job. As a matter of fact, he seems to be the one everyone remembers from this version. He did a good job, but I preferred Jack. Hey the show was still fun. Also later in the run, it was just one couple, instead of 2 couples competing against each other. It was really fun IMO. Yeah, it was better than the original B&W version.
